Smells a little like gingerbread, not as sweet as cane sugar and has a slightly biscuit crumb texture but suitable substitute, however it did brown a little more than regular sugar in a biscuit slice. Perfect that it's organic as well. I would buy again.

I like coconut sugar because of its caramel-like flavour and it's coarse texture. It apparently has a lower glycemic load as well, but I tend to use only a small amount so can't really provide any insight as to whether I feel different when I eat this vs. regular sugar. It's a great product for baking and would also be great for coffee, if you are into sweetened coffee. It also works great for sprinkling on baked goods for when you want that crunchy coating of sugar.
